Hot Tub Time Machine helmer doing Bad Santa 2

Steve Pink, the “Hot Tub Time Machine” and “Accepted” director who at one stage was involved in the long-gestating reboot of “Fletch”, has been tapped to direct the sequel to Billy Bob Thornton starrer “Bad Santa”, Deadline reports.

Pink, who has been spending his days directing TV the last few years, has met with the approval of Dimension films, star Thornton and no doubt the cosy lingerie outfit worn by Lauren Graham.

Look, I like “Bad Santa”, I think it’s perfectly amusing enough… but my step-mother (mind you, she’s the same age as me! Nerrrr shuddyup!) seems to think it’s the bee’s knees. Which reminds me, I’ve never even seen knees on bees… so what’s so great about ’em!?
